Band
The Newmarket School Band is open to any pupil who can play an instrument well. Sometimes pupils are noticed for their potential during class music lessons and are invited to join. We meet on Wednesdays from 1.40pm to 2.50pm. Throughout the year we have the opportunity to perform at the biennial Cultural Evening, the Annual Music Recital, the end of year Prize Giving and other school assemblies.
The instruments that are played are: piano, keyboards, glockenspiels, metalaphones, recorders, guitars and all types of percussion.
Violins, flutes and other instruments learned by individual pupils are catered for, but not provided. We are always proud that we have a very high standard of musicianship in our band. We often have students who are accepted into one of the APPA Music Festival Orchestras.
